Humito's 15th experience with Salvia Divinorum, 6 spoons 10x extract bought at Botanic-Art.

December 12th 2000. It has been over a month that I had a real strong Salvia Divinorum experience, but this time it really hit me again. It wasn't a very large dose, so it wasn't such an overwhelming feeling, but it was certainly one of the most beautiful trips I have ever had.

I was allready quite stoned from a couple of waterpipes with weed and I was planning on smoking a small pipe of Salvia, just before I would go to bed. 6 fairly filled spoonfulls with the allready known Coke-spoon. I will make a picture from this spoon, so anyone who doesn't know what it is, can get an idea of what I'm talking about.

I put the 10x enhanced Salvia leaves in my waterpipe( more a bhong ). It's a little house with some mushrooms on the side and the well known blue alien from f.e. a poster I have with the text " Take Me To Your Dealer " on it and a joint in his hand that he brings to his mouth. The alien is sitting on the floor, leaning against the house, so very stoned that he cannot get up. It is a pleasure just to look at the pipe. The roof is black with a yellow lining and it has some weedleaves on it. The walls are made from red bricks and the alien is blue. It has a small and a large chimney. The large chimney is for smoking and the small one is the bowl to put the Salvia in. Because I bought this pipe especially for Salvia, nothing else has been smoked from it.

After I filled my pipe with 6 spoons 10x extract, I took a few deep breaths to supply my body with a lot of oxygen. Then I exhaled as much as possible and immediatly I started to fill my lungs again by sucking on my pipe. I have a lighter with two flames, also bought especially for Salvia, so the Salvia was burned up very quickly. Slowly I kept sucking on my pipe, not to burn up the Salvia further, there was only a little white ash still glowing, but to get all the smoke out of the pipe. But the main reason is to get the Salvia in my lungs as deep as possible.

To achieve that I have another trick I would like to explain here. Just before my lungs are full, I stop inhaling, the pipe is allready empty and now the game of keeping the smoke in as long as possible, begins. I keep my breath in as long as I can and when I get in trouble I take a last gasp of fresh air, my lungs weren't full yet. With this new fresh air I can hold on a little longer again. When I can not hold it anymore I release a little air from my lungs and directly I inhale some fresh air. This continuously releasing some air and breathing in fresh air, I can keep up for a long time, until there isn't hardly any smoke left to breath out, like this time. I allready clearly had trippy feelings, even before all the smoke had disappeared from my lungs.

Then it began, I slowly sank away in the, to me so well known, Salvia trance. Completely relaxed I saw some images appearing and it felt as if I was peeled slowly. Every layer that got removed brought me an enormous change. It is impossible to explain what it all was what I had felt and seen. But a few things I remeber very strongly and I regard those as the most important from the whole trip. On one given moment I was the Salvia smoke.

I really liked beeing the smoke, because for years I have been calling myself Humito, which means "little smoke" in Spanish. I took the name Humito from the books of Carlos Castaneda. I really liked this "little smoke" that Carlos had to smoke to meet his ally, to get to know it and to tame it, so years ago I took the alias Humito. Since I got to know Salvia, 3/4 year ago, I think I have found the main ingredient of this "little smoke". In my eyes the effects of Salvia are so similar to the "little smoke" that Don Juan made Carlos smoke, that I'm convinced that it's the same thing.

Deeper and deeper I went and after I had been the smoke of Salvia for an eternity, another layer got peeled off of me and this time I changed into the taste of Salvia. Clearly I felt the change from beeing the smoke to beeing the taste and now that I had become the taste I was able to go further into myself until there was almost nothing left. I had been everything, everything I could remember, I had been myself and even more. There was a large amount of things I couldn't remember, what I had also been, but now I had found myself. I was allready gone completely, but still there wasn't anything else left but myself. The smallest spot I could ever amagine and it even went deeper.

I couldn't possibly comprehend those deepest depths. For now this was the closest I have been to myself ever. I felt such a deep calmness coming over me and that calmness is still in me, I can clearly feel that place where I have been that Tuesday. It's 14 days later now and I can still feel the energy I felt there. I hit an energysource deep inside of me and I hope I will never forget about it. Maybe it was my deepest self, it was the deepest place I have ever been. The smallest sparkle of conciousness, surrounded by an energy-field that looks like a body when looked at in a certain way. That body is surrounded by an endless, inexhaustible energy again.

It was one of the most beautiful experiences I have ever had. If it was my own energysource that I had found, it was one of the smallest and at the same time one of the most powerfull energies I have ever observed in myself. It's so pure, so small, with such an enormous radiation. My body is in direct contact with this energy, it's that conciousness-energy that is observing. Clearly I am aware that I am that small spot myself. It seemed as if that small spot radiates a power that will never go away again.

Although it was a beautiful experience and it seemed to last an eternity, it was a calm, not very strong Salvia experience. It didn't last longer than 3 minutes and after those 3 minutes it faded allready. So it was one of my most wonderfull experiences I ever had, but at the same time not the strongest and also not the longest. But I can still feel the impact of this marvelous experience.

Of course this report is, just like any other report about my experiences, just a glimps of what really happened. It is often so overwhelming and so many things happen at the same time that is impossible to write it all down. A large part is going way to fast to capture in words. Sometimes the things you see are so beautiful and wide that they are almost impossible to comprehend. With almost every experience there are those unsayable things. I have had experiences that were so weird, that I'm still questioning myself what happened. Still I will try as much as possible to write my experiences down as good as I can.

This was allready the 15th experience I have written down, but that doesn't mean this was my actual 15th experience though. I regularly smoke small pipes with 2 or 4 of my small spoonfulls, which results in a deep meditative calmness that comes over me. By smoking these small doses, I have discovered that 1 small pipe opens up a clogged nose. It also releaves head-aches and often they don't come back. And finally, and this isn't so strange, because in Mexico they also use Salvia for belly diseases, when I have a swollen feeling in my stomach, I smoke a small pipe of Salvia and gone is this swollen feeling, to also not come back for the rest of the day.

It goes to far to discuss all the medical aspects of Salvia in this experience, but I wanted to make clear that I didn't write down all my experiences. Some of them I have allready forgotten, because they weren't worth it and some were so short, but very intense and weird, that I simply couldn't find the words for it. Maybe I'll make an addition to my site, a part that is only about experiences with smaller doses.
